Description

Captivating 1909/8 Twenty

1909/8 $20 MS65 PCGS. CAC. This notable 20th century gold overdate is the sole die variety in the Saint-Gaudens double eagle series to rate a mention in the Guide Book, and while European shipments turned up appreciable quantities of the issue, most of those coins were in lesser Mint State grades. Gems such as the present example are highly prized condition rarities. Strong, swirling luster enlivens the primarily yellow-orange surfaces, though peach elements are present close to the well-defined figure of Liberty. Minimally marked with solid eye appeal and a great candidate for the Registry enthusiast. Population: 14 in 65, 3 finer (6/08).
